I'm starting to grow out of my first set of skis and I talked to the owner of my resorts pro shop. I'm getting to be an aggressive skier that's getting more adventurous (thanks Pav!). So he recommended them. I took them out for about 10 minutes. Since I had to hurry because I needed to get back to work. I took them out on wet sloppy snow and I've been working 6 days this past week working my bum off. When I took them out I had a hard time getting the back of my left ski up to slide it back to make a turn. These new skis are a lil' bit heavier then my other ones and I know I'm going to grow into these. My question is. Is it the ski's or is it a combo of me being tired from work and a wider "tail". I'd love to bring these babies home. They are sexy!

Yes and no. Very densely packed snow mixed with periods of sun and clouds and a lot of traffic will start to turn to ice. I work at a ski resort and I'm starting to notice a huge difference from when I start work to when I finish

I'm going to be going this weekend. Any suggestions?

I find it more fun to be on your own. I'm a social butterfly and I'll hook up with buddies. It's a good time. Hell I'll go skiing with you. Where you at? :D

Yeah Pav I'm on the younger side. The younger dumber side. You've never steered me wrong
